MCQ
The $pH$ of $0.1\,\,M$ solution of the following salts increases in the order
  • A
    $NaCl < N{H_4}Cl < NaCN < HCl$
  • B
    $HCl < NaCl < NaCN < N{H_4}Cl$
  • C
    $NaCN < N{H_4}Cl < NaCl < HCl$
  • $HCl < N{H_4}Cl < NaCl < NaCN$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$HCl < N{H_4}Cl < NaCl < NaCN$
(d) $N{H_4}Cl$ undergoes cationic hydrolysis hence $pH$ is $ > 7$ because the solution due to cationic hydrolysis in acids.

$NaCN $ undergoes anionic hydrolysis hence $ pH $ is $>7.$

$HCl$  is strong acid and $NaCl$  is neutral solution.

Hence the $pH$  of given solutions will increases.

$HCl < NaCl < NaCN < N{H_4}Cl$
